Back at the house, Prince Jing lost his temper. He angrily broke one porcelain after another and cursed Xia Yechen.

Other princes also came one after another. They were all loyal supporters of Prince Jing, but now they felt extremely envious of Xia Yechen's temporary glory.

"Who is this Xia Yechen?" said a prince, "He is just a little servant, but now he dares to treat us like this?"

Another prince also said: "That's right, he thinks that because he has real power, he can be tyrannical?"

Prince Jing sneered: "Do you think this is his alone? This is the emperor's appreciation of him."

"But..." a prince said, "What should we do now? We can't be bullied by him like this."

Prince Jing thought for a moment and then said: "Now is not the time for us to take action. We must wait for the opportunity. When Xia Yechen makes a mistake, we must seize his leverage."

All the princes nodded: "Okay, okay. We must let him know how powerful we are."

However, Xia Yechen is no longer the same person as before. He holds real power and is appreciated by the emperor, so he will naturally not be afraid of these princes.

After making some sarcasm, he threatened: "If you dare to move, I will definitely make you regret it."

All the princes changed their expressions after hearing this, but they also knew that Xia Yechen was not easy to deal with now. So they could only leave Prince Jing's Mansion in despair.

The emperor looked at Xia Yechen and was extremely satisfied. He knew that this young man would be the hope of their country's future.

"Xia Yechen, you have made great achievements this time, and I will reward you heavily.

"The emperor said, "I will build a temporary palace for you and let you form your own army. "

Xia Yechen was shocked. He knew what this reward meant. This not only gave him more power, but also made him unique among other princes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xia Yechen knew in his heart that this was the opportunity he had always wanted.

Juechen was very happy after hearing the news. He knew that his talent was finally being appreciated. He decided to make good use of this opportunity to help Xia Yechen build a powerful army.

"I will work hard." Juechen said to Xia Yechen, "I will definitely not let you down."

Xia Yechen looked at him, knowing in his heart that this young man would become his right-hand man.

In the capital, corruption is also slowly fermenting. Xia Yechen already had enough evidence and was ready to start an investigation. He knows it will be a tough battle, but he is confident he can win.

Zhou Xiaoyuan prepared a sumptuous meal for Xia Yechen and his team.

After returning to the capital, Zhou Xiaoyuan put all her energy into taking care of Nini. She stayed with the child and took care of her food and daily life, making her feel the warmth of a mother.

Xia Yechen formally established the temporary Yafu and began to secretly cultivate a group of troops of his own. He understood that only by possessing his own strength could he be invincible in the court.

Juechen had always communicated with the ministers in the capital through encrypted letters before, without knowing his true identity.

After Xia Yechen thought about it, he knew that he would definitely not be able to catch the big fish in the capital for a while, so he signaled Juechen to wait.

At this time, Prince Jing was killed by Xia Ye

Chen Chen made all kinds of pranks, which made him miserable. He once tried to appeal to the Eastern Emperor, hoping to get the other party's attention and support.

However, Emperor Dong turned a deaf ear to his complaints and instead warned him not to do anything more.

"Your Majesty, how could you treat me like this?" Prince Jing said sadly, "Xia Yechen has gone too far, he..."

Emperor Dong waved his hand: "I understand, you can go back."

King Jing left angrily, his heart full of anger and dissatisfaction.

When Concubine Jia learned about this, she was also indignant. She decided to go to Emperor Dong and cry, hoping to seek justice for Prince Jing. However, Emperor Dong gradually lost his patience.

"Why are you here again?" Emperor Dong said displeasedly, "I have said many times that I have my own discretion when it comes to Prince Jing."

Concubine Jia burst into tears after hearing this: "But Your Majesty, how can Prince Jing endure how you treat him like this? He..."

Emperor Dong frowned: "Okay, I understand. I will handle it."

Concubine Jia could only leave silently, but the dissatisfaction and anger in her heart became stronger and stronger. She vented her anger on the people around her, blaming them for failing to fulfill their responsibilities. She even scolded some palace maids and eunuchs to pieces.

At this time, the nun on the side reminded Concubine Jia: "My Lady, in fact, Zhou Xiaoyuan is secretly controlling all of this."

Concubine Jia was shocked when she heard this: "What? How dare that bitch do this?"

Mammy nodded: "Yes, if it weren't for her, Xia Yechen would definitely have died. Madam, think about it, Xia Yechen has always been just a minister before, how could he suddenly have so much power? "

Concubine Jia sneered: "This bitch

, How dare you plot against me secretly. "

After thinking for a moment, she said: "I want to teach her a lesson. Someone, go get Nini from me."

Everyone nodded after hearing this, and someone immediately went to carry out the order.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was taking care of Nini at this time, and suddenly found someone sneaking into her room. She immediately noticed something was wrong, walked over quickly and took a look, and found that it was Concubine Jia's person.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Xiaoyuan shouted, "Who asked you to come in?"

Those people didn't say anything and rushed into the room, intending to snatch Nini away. Zhou Xiaoyuan tried her best to stop them, but they were no match for them.

Seeing that Nini was about to be snatched away, Zhou Xiaoyuan was so anxious that she shouted loudly: "Someone, help!"

People around heard the sound and rushed over. Those people from Concubine Jia saw that the situation was not good and had no choice but to retreat. Zhou Xiaoyuan hugged Nini and burst into tears: "Nini, are you okay?"

Nini was frightened, collapsed and cried: "Mom, I'm so scared..."

Zhou Xiaoyuan hugged her distressedly and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay."

Zhou Xiaoyuan hugged Nini and comforted her distressedly. Nini's crying gradually subsided, and she looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan with a look of horror, which broke Zhou Xiaoyuan's heart.

"Empress, why are you doing this?" Zhou Xiaoyuan looked at Concubine Jia helplessly, "You said you were doing it for the good of the child, but doing this will only make the child more painful."

Concubine Jia sneered when she heard this: "Huh, what a joke. You actually have the nerve to accuse me? If it weren't for you, that bitch Xia Yechen would have died long ago."

Zhou Xiaoyuan was furious when she heard this: "You are a joke! I am just protecting my

Child, what qualifications do you have to interfere with us? "

Concubine Jia was overwhelmed by her momentum and was speechless for a moment. At this time, Concubine Shu came over after hearing the news, and her eyes were moist when she saw Zhou Xiaoyuan and Nini hugging each other and crying.
